Plainville High School

Marching Band

By Kevin Pham

The High School Marching Band attended the High

Plains Marching Festival at FHSU on October 24th and

received an Excellent Rating (II+) in festival

competition. In previous years, the band would only

attend the festival to watch other schools perform;

however, this year was the band’s first appearance

performing in the festival.

Bands attending the festival are rated by six

adjudicators who are focused on specific elements of a

marching show. There were two judges for Music

Performance, one judge for Marching and Maneuvering,

one judge for General Effect, one judge for Percussion,

and one judge for Auxiliary. Combining the scores will

determine the overall rating for each band. Percussion

and Auxiliary Scores are not included in the final score

of the band.

The students have been working hard since the

beginning of the school year. Through the extra early

morning rehearsals and time during class, each

member’s dedication on making the band sound and

look great have been paying off. For years to come, the

band will continue to work hard to achieve higher goals

and they will continue to make Plainville Proud. Go

Cards!

Kindergarten is “Kicking Off” a Great Year!

By Mrs. Hovis

Greetings from Mrs. Hovis’ kindergarten class!

We are so excited about learning this year! With 13

eager-to-learn students in our class, there is never a dull

moment! We have already learned so many new and

exciting things to help “grow our brains”. We have also

worked very hard on following the rules, learning about

how to treat others, and our daily kindergarten routine.

Each day we focus on many new concepts. We

have learned about numbers and quantities in our math

curriculum. In reading, we are learning about sounds

that the letters make, blending those sounds to make

words, rhyming, and counting the sounds and syllables

we hear in words. We have also been reading, reading,

reading!! Learning about how good readers think about

characters and setting, retell the stories they read,

compare and contrast details in the story, and classify

information are just a few of the concepts we have

already begun learning about this year.

As November begins, we can say the first

quarter has flown by for us in kindergarten for sure! As

the saying goes, “Time flies when you’re having fun!”

We would agree! Kindergarten is a great place to learn

and play! Stop by and see us anytime, we are always

excited to show everyone what “SMARTIES” we are!

By Krista Latta

I am so excited to be back this year! We have a lot

going on right now and the year will only get busier.

The high school choir has sung the national anthem at

two football games this year. There are

five high school students auditioning for KMEA district

and state choir at the beginning of November, so we

wish them the best of luck! We have one junior high

student singing in the Junior High Choir at Hays High

School along with other students from around the

district. The high school will be singing at MCL on

November 7th at Trego, we have preparing for this since

the beginning of the school year. The junior high/high

school will also have their Christmas program on

Monday, November 28th in the auditorium after Home

for the Holidays. The high school choir will also be

preparing for contest in April and will be having their

Spring Concert on Monday, May 1st, which will include

the art viewing from Mrs. Wells’ students, along with

singing at Baccalaureate and Graduation in May. The

junior high will have contest in February and will also be

singing at 8th Grade Promotion in May.

The elementary students are busy preparing for their

Christmas Concert on Monday, December 5th in the

auditorium. We have a rock ‘n’ roll Christmas Concert

with all kinds of movement and other surprises, so

please join us for that night. They will also have a

Spring Concert on Monday, May 8th. We have been

doing a reward chart for the students who do well each

week and then a big drawing at the end of the nine

weeks for a chance to win a prize. The 4th/5

th/6

th graders

will be learning recorders in January.

This school year I have added a beginning guitar

class, which will play at our concert on November 28th

and the concert on May 1st. This is a class for 7

th/8

th

graders with one year or less of guitar. We have been

learning a few basic chords and the notes on the guitar.

We have been talking about proper technique when

playing the guitar and learning how to play with a pick.

I thank you for your support of the music program

and let me know if there is anything you would like the

choirs to sing at in the community because we are

always looking for places and people to perform for.

I hope you enjoy our various performances

throughout the year and I look forward to seeing

everyone at our first concerts of the year!
